Ophthalmic lens molds made from one or more thermoplastic polymers having an average polarity of about 1% to about 7%, Ophthalmic lenses, including silicone hydrogel contact lenses molded using the less polar thermoplastic polymers, and related The method is described. When using the mold for casting molding silicone hydrogel contact lenses, the resulting polymerized lens body has a wettable surface that is acceptable for ophthalmic use. |
